France...en route to LOURDES

A drive through the Massif Central to the Pyrenees...encountering the rest havens for pilgrims past and present...with names like Le Puy-en-Velay, Rodez, Bel Castel, Rocamadaour to the holy sanctuary of Lourdes and the villages surrounding...a very pleasant drive of some 2,500 km round trip to and from our home in Pully!
Lourdes was a very special experience for me...
